About Bernard Bell

I'm a TV Network executive who travels alot. Originally from NC, I have been living in DC since 2003. I also split my time between my homes in NYC, NC, and Atlanta. But DC is the best city ever!

Bernard Bell purchased this condo in 2013

Why Bernard Bell chose Southwest Waterfront

I love this neighborhood. All of my homes are in the area, and it has literally become one of the hottest but low key NEIGHBORHOODS. The Stadium has transformed the energy of the area. I love to sit on the terrace with a glass of wine and hear the Baseball Stadium cheers!

What makes this condo unique

The thrill of being in this neighborhood comes from when I walk out my front door, look to the left, and see the shining dome of the Nation's Capitol building. It is a significant and tangible energy booster, and a reminder of the freedoms that we take for granted in this country.

Great place to stay.

Easy access to metro! The apartment is nice. The owner provided very detailed information for dinning and sightseeing in DC area. Check in and check out processes are easy. The cleaningness level could be improved though.

Owner's Response: Thanks for this feedback! We have switched cleaning crews and would not have known if you had not written a review to alert us. I truly value the VRBO family feedback. Thanks so much.

The property was lovely, near the metro, but on the edge of an unsafe neighborhood.

The property was lovely and well decorated. The bed was comfortable. Other tenants of the building were VERY friendly. The deck on the top of the building is gorgeous, including a pool. The apartment could have been cleaner -- missing an owner's eye for cleanliness. Bathroom fan was caked with dust, shower curtain had splotches of black mold (YUCK!), spaghetti sauce dried on the refrigerator door. We also had some difficulty in emailing with the owner. I sent an email which was never responded to. When my husband called two days before we arrived, Bernard was very friendly and helpful. He offered to send us two different documents via email. We never received an email or the documents. When we arrived at the property, they had no record of our arrival and had to call Bernard for confirmation. Bernard called to apologize that he forgot to hit "send" on the email about our stay. We asked if there was anywhere to store our luggage, as we had to check out by 11:00 a.m. but our flight wasn't until 8:30 p.m. He said he would send an email to the concierge. When we went to check out, there was no email from Bernard. They were hesitant to keep our luggage. I received an email sent after we had already checked out.

Owner's Response: Thank you for your review. I clearly dropped the ball on your stay this week! And thanks for the update on the cleanliness. As a result we have changed cleaning crews.
Per the neighborhood, it is the new baseball stadium neighborhood—and like many other stadium neighborhoods—is being regentrified. However it is by far one of the safest neighborhoods in the city because the city can not afford to have any negative press on the neighborhood. Too many tourists.
Thanks again for your review.

Really lovely and handy apartment for 2

The apartment is quiet, extremely well kept and stocked. It has a lovely, eclectic furnishings. The building staff were very friendly and helpful - including letting us store our luggage on the day we arrived until we could check in. If you love baseball the stadium is just across the road. A metro stop is close by, with easy, short access to the Mall. An excellent choice.

Adjacent to Nationals Park and one of the few residential areas in Southwest DC, this neighborhood has been evolving at a rapid pace. Much of the area consists of glass-facaded condominium complexes separated by wide, well-lit pedestrian thoroughfares—many of which lead towards DC's National Mall. Providing its laid-back residents with plenty of places to eat, drink, and make merry along the river's edge, Southwest Waterfront is continually adding restaurants, cafes, and exciting nightlife haunts to its entertainment repertoire.

Reagan National Airport: 15 minutes by cab without traffic or 21 minutes by public transit
